“If we are facing in the right direction, all we
have to do is keep on walking”
Buddhist Saying
Personal Eight Mansions is well-known
in Feng Shui. Your date of birth identifies your Gua number
which in turn identifies your four good and four bad locations.
Knowing the Eight Mansions of your
home which takes into consideration the
distribution of energy throughout the building will determine whether you and
your home are meant for one another.
Let
us look this time at someone whose Gua number is 2 and who lives in a west
group house.
The
auspicious directions for a person with Gua Gumber 2 is northeast, west,
northwest and southwest.
Their inauspicious
directions are east, southeast, south and north.
When
this person lives in a Kun house which faces northeast (22.5o to
67.5o) and sits southwest (202.5o to 247.5o) they
are totally in harmony with their west group home. During
the current period of 8 this is a most auspicious combination and while not
ideal can also benefit those belonging to the east group as long as the
internal layout is designed based on their positive locations.
For
someone with Gua number 2 this is an ideal layout as the facing direction
matches their most auspicious direction; their health direction (west);
longevity and relationship (northwest) and personal growth (southwest) harmonise
perfectly.
This
also means their four inauspicious locations are in the same locations.
This
sounds very good, however as with houses facing and sitting in different groups,
the internal layout is all important. The main door is obviously auspicious although
it does not automatically follow that the living, sleeping and kitchen areas
are equally positive.
Remembering
that location is more important than direction, three of the four auspicious
locations are the northwest, west and southwest. The living and sleeping areas would ideally
be located in one or more of these sectors.
The kitchen would be best located in the east or the southeast. In Feng Shui it is generally recommended that
the kitchen a) is not located in the centre of the home (this is said to
signify damaging family harmony) and b) is not located towards the front of the
home (the kitchen is a source of wealth to the family and is better hidden deep
within the building to protect the good fortune of the family.)
Another
consideration is the key things in your life at the moment. If your career is all-consuming the front of
your house is important to care for. Do
you have a bright hall outside your front door?
Do you have a clean, clear and bright space inside your front door
making it welcoming and auspicious?
If
health is important then you will benefit from a bedroom in the west. If longevity, love and relationships are
important then having your living room and bedroom in the northwest will bring
positive energy to you. Personal growth
is an ongoing process whatever stage of your life you are going through. We are always learning and growing. If you have a home study or office the
southwest will benefit you.
If
the layout of your home is such that it is impossible to tap the ideal
locations it becomes vital to ensure you face an auspicious direction in an
inauspicious location. Another thing to consider is the direction
your living room, study or office, bedroom and kitchen doors face. Having them face one of your auspicious
directions is bringing positive energy into the room each time the door is
opened and closed.
To the fulfillment of your dreams
